No, not sorry! Good! It means I didn’t miss seeing any friends of mine. I have set up a season pass, so now if any of my friends are on in other episodes I will see them. I’m just glad I didn’t miss anyone. ---

[QUOTE=Vinyl Turnip] I watched a bit of this trainwreck. Hasselhoff’s eyes were so glassy it sometimes looked like he had cataracts. I notice they’ve more or less stuck with the tried-and-true American Idol judging format. Kept the limey asshole but dumped the token black hipster, and split Paula’s duties (maudlin indulgence and loopy incoherence) between two separate people. [/QUOTE] Great ones 🙂 ---

After reading this thread, I’m going to have to check it out. Looks like something I might really like. **WTF is happening to me?** :eek: ---

**Koeeoaddi** Just accept it. Sit back and let the friendly radiation of the cathode ray tube wash over you. Bask in the glowing warmth of television’s warming glow and know deep down that everything will be alright. ---

[QUOTE=Tahssa] I liked the tubes guy it was very original but you’re right it was a one-off act. [/QUOTE] Not TERRIBLY original. But I actually liked that act in the 70s when it was called Mummenschanz… ---

[QUOTE=Tahssa] The family of musicians were entertaining. [/QUOTE] [The Duttons](http://www.theduttons.com/). They have their own theater in Branson and I really LOVED their show. Amy Dutton was recently voted Branson’s best fiddle player. When I saw them last October, Amy was about a million months pregnant. Didn’t slow her down, no sir. She played and sang, while walking all around the stage, up and down steps, AND doing quick wardrobe changes offstage. Having been pregnant myself, I found this pretty impressive! 🙂 I thought Piers was a real prick for buzzing them only because he felt their family was too large. HA!! Wonder if he knew they have another daughter who doesn’t perform with them and have also adopted seven other kids (for a grand total of 14 children)? I bought the DVD from the show I attended, and my 12 year old daughter watches it constantly. She loved seeing them on the show–and she got really irritated when Doofus buzzed them! ---
